Palma de Mallorca is on an island, so there are only two ways to get there.
The fastest way is to get a flight and land at Palma airport, which is situated 8 km outside the city. The airport is served by several airlines (national and low cost) and, especialy in summer, by tour operators that organize charter flights from different locations.
Palma is connected directly to many European countries. There are no direct connections outside the EU, with the exception of Russia.

In order to reach the city center from the airport, you can take the bus n.1 (bus stop directly in front of the arrival exits). The bus runs from 6:00 am to 2:00 am everyday, with a frequency of a bus every 10-15 minutes. The ticket costs 2 euro and can be bought directly on the bus from the driver (which usually speaks a bit of English or German)
This is a city line bus, so it does plenty of stops in town. The most important is Plaza de Espanya (just after the El Corte Ingles dept store), where you can find all the connections with other buses, coaches and trains (the coach and train station is underground). There is also an Information office where you can get a map of the town and a partial list of the bus lines operating in town.
If you don't know the exact stop for you, feel free to ask the driver. He'll shout at you when it's time for you to get off. Anyway all buses are equiped with a led screen that advises you about the next stop. The name of the next stop will also be repeated by a recorded voice (in Catalan and Castellano)
The second way to get to Palma is by ferry. The port is situated in the south-west part of town and there are regular connections to Barcelona, Valencia, Dénia, Ibiza and Menorca.
The port can be reached with many of the city line buses (including n.1 airport-Palma)
